Rainy Afternoon vs S 6010-G30Y
Rainy Afternoon (Benjamin Moore) and S 6010-G30Y (NCS) come from different manufacturers. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 15 vs 14 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Rainy Afternoon leans green, S 6010-G30Y reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 4.0 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
